MS Dhoni has often demonstrated that he is a top-notch cricketer as well as a fantastic father. A new photo of Ziva and Dhoni in a playful mood has gone viral. On social media, Little Ziva has a sizable following. Dhoni and Ziva were joined by Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya when photographs of the 38-year-old sports star teaching his daughter to swim went popular on social media. When asked how much his daughter had affected his life during an interview, Dhoni replied, “I don’t know whether it has changed me as a cricketer, but as a person, yes of course because children are very close to their fathers.” “In my case, the issue is that I was not present when she (Ziva) was born, and I spent much of that time playing cricket, so everything unpleasant has been hurled at me (to deal with). Is she doing something wrong, papa aa jayenge mat karo? Khana nahi kha rahi hai, papa aa jayenge khana khao (when she is not eating food, she is told dad will come to have food). As a result, she appears to be staring at me and is somewhat on the alert. I’m not sure how much she knows about cricket or how much she appreciates it, but I have to bring her to the post-match presentation one day, and she can simply start answering questions.” On the work front, MS Dhoni’s presence for the forthcoming series against South Africa has still to be confirmed.
